After completing the application for admission, an email will be sent to the address
provided on your application which will include your AHC myHancock log-in information
and your student identification number, also known as an H number.

NOTE: Have you attended another college/university? Students who have attended other accredited colleges/universities are required to
submit all official transcripts to the Admissions and Records Office for an evaluation.
This also includes students that have Advanced Placement (AP), IB, CLEP, and military
credit (Admissions and Records Office 1-805-922-6966 ext. 3248).

2. Apply for Financial Aid

Applying for financial aid is free (http://fafsa.gov/). All students are encouraged to apply. By completing the FAFSA, you may also qualify
for the CCPG, which will waive your enrollment fees.

California Dream Act students are required to complete the Dream Act Application (dream.csac.ca.gov). The application will also determine if you qualify for the CCPG.

Your English and math skills will be assessed based off of your high school transcript
information as reported in CCCApply when you apply for admission.

Bring a copy of your unofficial high school transcript to a counselor to see which
English and math classes you should take.

5. Attend an Educational Planning Workshop (EPW)

All new AHC students are required to attend an EPW. At the workshop, you will meet
with a counselor who will assist you in understanding your English and math placement,
identify your academic goal, and help you develop a first year plan using Degree Works.
